Check it out! My good friend was assigned to interview author Colson Whitehead and pick him up for the airport. I jokingly mentioned that she should make a playlist for the occasion. One thing led to another and I ended up creating this, which has been picked up by the AMAZING literary journal The Missouri Reviewfor their blogs section. Every other week I’ll be curating and commenting on what I believe to be the best playlist for driving a wide variety of writers and poets (living or dead) to and from the airport. So glad to be working with such a great publication on this.

Dig if you will the picture
of you and I engaged in some INTENSE laughter at the latest edition of “It Just Got Weirdo: A Wordy Evening @ Weirdo Records”.

Yes indeed! That time of the month is almost upon us where we cram a handful of some of the finest area performers together with an ever-adventurous audience into the smallest/bestest vinyl record store in Cambridge MA for an evening you won’t soon forget.

On MON. 2/24 (8:30) you have the chance to be treated to comedy from Andrew Durso, Jere Pilapil, Alvin David, Will Noonan, Chris Coxen AND some stellar poetry from Gemma Cooper-Novack!

PLUS if that wasn’t enough this month will feature a little something extra in the form of an ALL-ABOUT-PRINCE Trivia-Off between Andrew & Jere…to the Death!!! (Well, probably not really…) But def come out to see who knows more about the lyrics, deep album cuts, bootlegs, romances & filmography of The Purple One. The winner walks away with the Purple Reign title and a fantastic Prince prize.

Of course the victor won’t be the only one walking away with loot. As with all our Weirdo shows all performers & audience members walk away with something to remember the show by (even if bad VHS rip of “Under The Cherry Moon”). Who knows??! It could be you!!!

See you there.

Notes:It Just Got Weirdo: A Wordy Evening @ Weirdo Records. This just might be the weirdest Weirdo yet. All I’ll say for now is that there will be an All-About-Prince Trivia-off between two of the performers…to the DEATH. Come see who will Purple Reign Supreme!
